Black & Ginger by Churn Milk Joan
These songs were recorded in early 2012 at the Big Block 454 White Lee studios in Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire.
"Psychedelic free funk popsters extraordinaire" - Jason Crane.
"Even better than the last album" - Mark Williamson
"Like some farmer lad at a Christmas do, neck bursting out of his collar, tie askew, this record struggles to contain all the potential it possesses... an extremely entertaining listen." - Richard Foster, Incendiary Magazine
"Best song on this album is the very melodic, haunting title track. Their best ever song, I believe. The quality is very good throughout and this album should give krautrock fans and others a lot of pleasure. Krautrock is probably the best label. Can is a good reference. In other words; the more funky, psychedelic end of the krautrock spectre scene." - Torodd Fuglesteg
"Shambolically funky and subversively humorous avant-krautfunk from the vicinity of Hebden Bridge in Yorkshire. Completely self-effacing, but musically sophisticated, seriously creative and mischievously entertaining." - Oliver Arditi
